Ego trip
I am thinking it, you might as well be forced to share in it with me.
When a freshman starts telling me about his or her double major in neuroscience and political science
I’m like:
Bitches get stuff done!
NEVER NOT REBLOG BITCHES GETTING STUFF DONE.
I’m excited by the fact that the term “bitch” can potentially be badass and empowering.
This is totally the right idea—to respect powerful women and not deem them as unfeminine. However, we are veering into dangerous territory here - I hope people remember to take this scene/gif set with a grain of salt. People too often misunderstand the context in which use of the term can possibly be viewed as empowering. I have a lot of experience with this word both personally and professionally, and am still so uncomfortable anytime a man says it (I even snapped at my boyfriend this weekend when he dropped a roadrage-induced b-bomb). My dear friend Chelsea just reminded me of that great scene in Mean Girls in which Tina Fey’s character encourages the teens to stop calling each other derogatory names because it then gives dudes the OK to follow suit. And it’s not okay.
To be clear, I love Tina and Amy more than life itself, and Hillary Clinton is my queen. I just don’t want people overlooking the fact that this is only a comedy sketch and not an open dialogue to redefine the word in our vernacular. As my brilliant sister Liz pointed out, “taking comedy at face value is as potentially damaging as ignoring the problems that comedy brings to light (see: every time Jon Stewart tries to explain that he really is a comic and not a journalist, and if the real political-media culture is taking its cues from him, there’s a problem).”A strong and outspoken woman does not need to embrace/reclaim the label ‘bitch’—she can just, you know, be labeled as a smart and kick-ass woman.

This Bitch-she had her baby AFTER me! #nojustice
Booze inspired reflection
I wanted to be a lot of things when I was younger: wanted to save as many lost babies in the world as possible, wanted to improve the lives of those without the luxury of choices, wanted to educated others so that we reduced the number of well meaning blunders in developing nations. Unfortunately my judgement of others made it hard to live up to my own expectations making me feel like a girl interrupted. But before I lose my shit and brand myself a failure- I look at my family. My mini family. My loving husband who supports me through whatever and my beautiful son who brightens each moment with his big personality. Whenever I feel down or disappointed, I think of the fact that I have them and I am happy and grateful.
Thank you Greenbergs for being my boys.
